It's just up as an archive of the ILB audio drama.

no, i meant this site silly.although, im pissed i missed all the hub-bub. i ignored it because i was pissed about not having an xbox. im hoping to find the next step in all this, because you have to know they're gonna do something again for halo 3. bungie has always done these things. the cortana letters, and i love bees are only 2 parts i bet.

The site is still up because the site is now an archive of the game's audio drama component, as well as other elements of the game.

If they do something for Halo 3, it is unlikely to be ILB 2. You may find the following quote from Bungie themselves instructive:

Bungie wrote:
I mean for one thing, you have to figure that if we were doing a secret vial campaign, we wouldn't call it ilovebees[2], because you know, that wouldn't be terribly secret."


Post with more details can be found here.

although... I can see them maybe, as a 'giveaway' if they do an ARGish leadin to Halo 3, use at least one of the characters' names at some point... kind of like the giveaway in ILB with the mention of Spartan, or Reach, where until that point it was still uncertainly related Halo (though obvious Smile)

That would be cool if they did though. Totally separate storyline, plot, characters, but have a cameo from ILB... of course, the more we talk about possibilities, the less likely they'll be to use any of the ideas, and the harder their job... hehe
